Luke Neverisky: remote.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Yeah. as your
Luke Neverisky: Uh, not bad. Um, couple couple things. Um, one is I uh I'm taking all of next week off to
Christopher Hooper: recon.
Luke Neverisky: uh to cosplay as a full-time game developer. Um, yeah. I was
Christopher Hooper: Oh. Oh,
Luke Neverisky: talking with my brother and I was like, man, I really wish I could just like quit my
Christopher Hooper: really?
Luke Neverisky: job and, you know, like lean into this hard and see what happens, but obviously I'm not going to quit my job.
Christopher Hooper: Uh yeah.
Luke Neverisky: Um, but he's like, "What if you just take like two weeks off and give it a shot?" And I'm like, "I I can't take two weeks, but
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: maybe I can do one week." And um anyway, long story short, I don't abuse my unlimited PTO enough. Uh so here's me abusing it.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. All right. Nice. Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Um so I'm going to
Christopher Hooper: That's
Luke Neverisky: try to like, you know, structure it like have a stand up with myself in the morning, maybe talk to my pets or something and stand up and
Christopher Hooper: cool.
Luke Neverisky: um you know, have a plan and a scope for what I want try to accomplish. And um honestly just see if like I can just see what it's like, right? And it could be that I get to like Wednesday and be like, "No f****** way." Um and
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: then you know, I'll know, right? Then great. But yeah. Um so yeah, there's there's some excitement about that. one, I get a work week off and two, I guess a, you know, go do my hobby for eight hours a day, five days a week. Um, so we'll
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. And then at the end of the the week, you'll be like, "Yeah, I want to do
Luke Neverisky: see. Yeah. Right. Exactly.
Christopher Hooper: this for my
Luke Neverisky: And I will have done it within the safety of
Christopher Hooper: career. Yeah, that's cool. Um, that's a that's
Luke Neverisky: PT. Thanks. Yeah, it's
Christopher Hooper: a that's a fun
Luke Neverisky: uh you know there's no there's no good time to take a week off uh work. So, it's just you just kind of got to say f*** it and
Christopher Hooper: idea.
Luke Neverisky: commit to a week and
Christopher Hooper: Just going to do it. Are you telling your co-workers what you're
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah. Uh
Christopher Hooper: doing?
Luke Neverisky: yeah. And uh it's all good. Like I told I told Zach I told some of my counterparts like, "Hey, I'm just going to come to get my desk." So like try not to bother me but if something blows up like I am literally a chrome
Christopher Hooper: Gotcha.
Luke Neverisky: stab um yeah and then uh I am this week we use them as a so we're consultants and so we bill time
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: accordingly and um and I was in a meeting with the other members of ELT and we used a thing called Deltech. I was like, you know, Deltech f****** sucks. I'm going to replace it. Like, okay.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Tyram: Come
Luke Neverisky: So, uh, this week I drafted up a plan, gathered a team together, and drew a six-month road map for design,
Christopher Hooper: Nice.
Luke Neverisky: implementation, um, and, uh, top. So, it's a scary undertaking,
Tyram: on. That's
Luke Neverisky: but should be fruitful or hopefully fruitful. But
Christopher Hooper: Nice. Nice. Have you um have you like hooked up your video game project with like get and uh like any
Luke Neverisky: yeah, you know, I tried and
Christopher Hooper: remote deployments at
Luke Neverisky: admittedly I am um I need someone to hold my hands through it is basically what I'm
Christopher Hooper: all? Okay.
Tyram: That's so
Luke Neverisky: Um, I tried I tried to do it and then like accidentally wiped
Christopher Hooper: Okay. Gotcha.
Tyram: cool.
Luke Neverisky: a couple of classes. Um, and I had
Christopher Hooper: Oh.
Luke Neverisky: a very very tense like three hours like how the f*** do I
Christopher Hooper: Uhhuh.
Luke Neverisky: get to recover the s***? And I'm like, okay, I'm
Christopher Hooper: I I found like it way way harder than like any other any other coding project I've ever
Luke Neverisky: um
Christopher Hooper: done because there's just like so so many just like just like tons of assets and files and they all are important and
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: also like I think you're not even supposed to like you're only supposed to commit like a subset of the like Unreal code to uh to your project. Um because technically like you
Luke Neverisky: Mhm.
Christopher Hooper: don't own it. Um so I think I accidentally like committed like my Unreal 4 project or whatever. Um they haven't come after me yet,
Luke Neverisky: Oh yeah, they got bigger fish. Um
Christopher Hooper: but like I don't know if I'm supposed to do
Luke Neverisky: yeah, interesting. I um I also
Christopher Hooper: that.
Luke Neverisky: know so when I was trying to do it like you have there's like there's some intermediary. There's like git and then there's GitHub and then there's something like that am I saying the right words. Okay, I'm saying
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, you're saying
Luke Neverisky: things. Okay. I love when I say things.
Christopher Hooper: things. Well, Git's probably the intermediary
Luke Neverisky: Um yes, yeah, yeah,
Christopher Hooper: if if that's what you're talking about.
Luke Neverisky: yeah. And I'm out of my element at
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. So like git
Luke Neverisky: that.
Christopher Hooper: is like the source control um software and github is like the actual like hosting of it. Um technically there are other like source control uh frameworks like Mercury and other things but basically like 99.9% of all projects are going to be using
Justin Hale: Luke, do you not use
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Uh for Unreal, no. I uh I play with
Justin Hale: Git? Don't you use it for like do you not use it in your day-to-day
Christopher Hooper: Git.
Tyram: I was taught from a young age not to do that,
Luke Neverisky: fire for my day job.
Tyram: not to play with
Luke Neverisky: Um not anymore. I uh for this
Tyram: fire.
Justin Hale: job?
Luke Neverisky: first public I uh have not actually done hands-on development for work in I'm one of those that uh I no longer do develop my day job. I tell people how to develop but I don't actually do
Justin Hale: Oh,
Luke Neverisky: it.
Christopher Hooper: Yep.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah, I I order background all
Justin Hale: gotcha. That's um very different from what Asurian does because even at the senior manager level, you're still expected to commit code.
Luke Neverisky: day. Oh, really? I mean, that's I would I would not be a senior
Justin Hale: That's um that's
Christopher Hooper: here.
Justin Hale: what three levels up for
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Justin Hale: me. Um gosh, I don't even
Luke Neverisky: manager.
Justin Hale: know. I know some directors that still commit code. Actually, engineering's
Luke Neverisky: Well, damn. Then I definitely
[00:10:00]
Christopher Hooper: That's
Justin Hale: engineering is not a um career goal at
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: terrifying.
Justin Hale: Asian. I'll I'll say that.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah. No kidding. I
Christopher Hooper: We used to have the the worst
Luke Neverisky: can't
Christopher Hooper: position which was uh a what was it a tech lead manager and they were basically expected to do full-time
Justin Hale: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: management and full-time engineering. Uh
Justin Hale: Yeah. That's
Luke Neverisky: you.
Christopher Hooper: so they did neither well
Justin Hale: that's what Techlan's already assuring.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah. actually.
Christopher Hooper: or they if they yeah if they're smart they're really just doing the management side and being like well I might have not committed anything but my reports did and they did a good job so we
Luke Neverisky: That's actually yeah when I was prior to the position I'm in I was exactly that. Uh
Christopher Hooper: win.
Luke Neverisky: it's the description no joke from my manager at the time was you are a senior manager with line respons like not line management responsibilities but perfect
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: f******.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. And like our organization doesn't really do like program managers or like project managers very well at all. So we
Luke Neverisky: Oh, you're
Christopher Hooper: basically are all doing that
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah. Love to see
Christopher Hooper: ourselves. So we actually need our managers to like fill those
Luke Neverisky: it.
Christopher Hooper: gaps a lot of the
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. So, yeah. So, like who leads it like see uh scrum ceremonies? things like that be or is it just like the team gets together and kind of figures it
Christopher Hooper: times. Yeah. Usually, usually there's like a team
Luke Neverisky: out. Gota
Christopher Hooper: lead or something. They kind of like will lead scrum or something like
Justin Hale: Yeah. Yeah. We we are tasked
Luke Neverisky: Okay.
Justin Hale: with handling scrum ourselves. We don't have uh project managers or any of
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: that. though honestly like
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: I prefer it that way because
Justin Hale: that.
Christopher Hooper: uh otherwise we like get sidetracked by like um by a person who's like so devoted to like getting their chart working that it changes every week and they're like you're missing one of the values for this chart that I made yesterday. And I'm like, I I don't know anything about the
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. That is a good point. I remember they're not technical and like so that and they're not supposed to be technical but at the same time I had a PM when I was a developer that was like I had to like we had to stop stand up and explain to them like what we were doing and
Christopher Hooper: stable. Right.
Luke Neverisky: and like this is supposed to be like 10 minutes like
Christopher Hooper: Right. Right. Yeah. The problem with our
Luke Neverisky: time
Christopher Hooper: standups is everything that everyone's working on, everyone wants to do a
Luke Neverisky: Oh
Christopher Hooper: deep dive in and they're like, "Wait, why are you running into that
Luke Neverisky: no.
Christopher Hooper: problem?" Uh, let's see. We could probably figure it out right now. And like, that's
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: not the point of this. That's
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. You just want to help. I
Christopher Hooper: uh but anyway, I can set up Git for
Luke Neverisky: agree. All right. Cool. I do. Thank
Christopher Hooper: you, Luke, if you need help with that.
Luke Neverisky: you. Uh I
Christopher Hooper: That's like the only thing I set up for my video game project is like a git deployment and then I was like ah that that's just that's fine. I'm going to call it
Luke Neverisky: have so I mean between me and you, we could have a
Christopher Hooper: a day
Luke Neverisky: full product going what you're
Christopher Hooper: now. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. It's the visual stuff that I'm like, ah, I can't be
Luke Neverisky: saying. See? Yeah. Yeah, you just got to commit to low poly, 2D, whatever. Lean into the
Christopher Hooper: asked. Yeah. And it's not Python, so I can't just be like
Justin Hale: You can
Luke Neverisky: cartoony uh I
Christopher Hooper: import
Justin Hale: pull public assets or paper
Luke Neverisky: mean you can
Christopher Hooper: world.
Luke Neverisky: and uh I mean animating in Blender is Python for what it's worth.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Yeah, that's true. But
Justin Hale: assets.
Christopher Hooper: like it's not it's not very I didn't find it very intuitive
Justin Hale: Don't wait for
Christopher Hooper: to be able to like do something in Blender and have it like automatically get applied in my
Luke Neverisky: Oh, dude. It's There's no
Christopher Hooper: project. Like there's a whole
Luke Neverisky: good pipeline for that. It sucks. There should
Christopher Hooper: like you're right. Yeah. You got to be like generate artifact, move artifact to
Luke Neverisky: be.
Christopher Hooper: project, apply in blueprint
Justin Hale: me.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Yeah, it's
Christopher Hooper: your your your
Luke Neverisky: I it we're over here in 2025. We still have to like go through six weeks to get something in Unreal. Anyway, I could pitch about for hours,
Christopher Hooper: artifact, you
Luke Neverisky: but
Christopher Hooper: know, and I'm like, "Hey, Claude Code, do this for me." And they're
Luke Neverisky: yeah. Oh
Christopher Hooper: like, "Got nothing for you here." That's a great idea. I f***** it. All right. I don't see who's here. Who's all here so
Luke Neverisky: s***. Everyone was
Tyram: Everyone's here. We can stop talking nerd

Tyram: No, I mean I I've made decades in the last 15 minutes.
Luke Neverisky: You got a whole
Christopher Hooper: you? I thought we were waiting for Ellis and Ally, but they've just been silently
Ellis Taylor: I mean, I got on like literally seconds at
Luke Neverisky: lot 10 minutes ago.
Christopher Hooper: chilling. All
Tyram: No. Oh,
Ellis Taylor: before Taylor's like, "We're all
Tyram: I was waiting for people to show up and I was I was gonna make sure Toeer knew that we can get started as soon as

Christopher Hooper: Oh. Oh yeah. I feel like
Walden Briarhelm: it It's got to stew a little before I just jump
Christopher Hooper: a chili is is definitely a thing that like gets
Tyram: Goodbye.
Luke Neverisky: Yes.
Christopher Hooper: better the the next day. Like a next day meal, it's even
Luke Neverisky: Yes. Absolutely.
Walden Briarhelm: in. It is a scientific fact. I
Christopher Hooper: better. The
Tyram: It's a shame that Justin couldn't make it last week because he tried to
Walden Briarhelm: believe I can
Tyram: organize for everybody like you know as a as an apology wore like Dragon Ball and like Zelda shirts you know
Justin Hale: I don't believe you. I
Luke Neverisky: Yeah, f***
Christopher Hooper: fact

Christopher Hooper: the past month just for
Justin Hale: hand. It's just a
Luke Neverisky: that.

Tyram: him.
Justin Hale: Yeah. You're like, "This is this is it, right? He's green. He's some green
Christopher Hooper: enough.
Justin Hale: idiot,
Christopher Hooper: He's got a sword. Kind of a little little
Tyram: Well, since Breath of the Wild, like I feel like the easier route to cosplay Link now is just get the blue shirt, you know? You don't necessarily need like the hat and
Justin Hale: bro.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah,
Tyram: everything and like the the the skirt and everything
Luke Neverisky: good point.
Christopher Hooper: dagger. But that's lame as hell.

Walden Briarhelm: for
Luke Neverisky: got
Tyram: Um,
Luke Neverisky: uh Yeah. Yeah, I think

Tyram: it might have been the first one where you could ride a horse actually.
Justin Hale: Okay.
Christopher Hooper: was that was the the big thing,
Tyram: Yeah, I know you couldn't in the first and second game
Justin Hale: Is that
Tyram: and I don't think uh Link to the Past had a horse. So I
Justin Hale: a Was that a total
Luke Neverisky: so. You had
Christopher Hooper: right?
Tyram: I think that's actually right.
Luke Neverisky: a
Christopher Hooper: No, I know about this game a lot. I gave it
Justin Hale: guess? You
Christopher Hooper: a shot. It sucks. It's a bad

Tyram: That is
[00:20:00]
Ellis Taylor: There goes our podcast ratings.
Luke Neverisky: God.
Christopher Hooper: Listen, I do not want anyone to
Tyram: true. Zelda is hella popular
Christopher Hooper: listen to this podcast, so I'm trying everything I can to steer people
Justin Hale: true. And very good. Doing a
Luke Neverisky: Then
Christopher Hooper: away.
Justin Hale: good job at it. If
Luke Neverisky: why are we promoting the luxurious Ford F150? birthday.
Christopher Hooper: Yum.
Justin Hale: you're Thank you very
Christopher Hooper: Yum. Uh, the
Tyram: nowadays.
Walden Briarhelm: Here we
Christopher Hooper: only thing that we need to do now is have like really obnoxious
Luke Neverisky: Oh yeah.
Christopher Hooper: thumbnails.
Ellis Taylor: back
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: Yeah, I guess we
Ellis Taylor: all of us to draw and talk some sex. No, we
Tyram: can all practice like our thumbnail mugging, you know,
Walden Briarhelm: go.
Ellis Taylor: fify the idol. It's our duty to keep the
Justin Hale: much.
Christopher Hooper: So, did uh Zach
Ellis Taylor: peace. The
Christopher Hooper: and I'm I'm singling in on Zack and
Tyram: like
Ellis Taylor: dragon's puning for our dragons. We can't lay around the dead
Christopher Hooper: Justin. Did y'all listen to the episode this
Ellis Taylor: here. Let's go find him and see him
Justin Hale: Listen,
Christopher Hooper: week?
Justin Hale: gross. I read
Luke Neverisky: What?
Christopher Hooper: What? You read it? Oh,
Walden Briarhelm: I read I read
Ellis Taylor: just kicks his
Justin Hale: it.
Christopher Hooper: okay.
Walden Briarhelm: the call session. I did not get to
Christopher Hooper: Okay. I'm just wondering because I feel
Ellis Taylor: own. I have to
Christopher Hooper: like I used you too as a conduit for a big lore dump. And so I'm hoping that you actually know about the lore
Walden Briarhelm: listen.
Ellis Taylor: wait.
Tyram: We actually learned a lot about uh
Christopher Hooper: dump.
Tyram: especially Ma's backstory with like uh his goddess and
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, especially like his goddess
Tyram: everything.
Christopher Hooper: and religious aspects.
Tyram: And we learned about
Ellis Taylor: This wind
Tyram: Brew like having dragons from his homeland in the south. And
Walden Briarhelm: What?
Ellis Taylor: will unless we fill this ship up with dragons and
Luke Neverisky: Mhm. Whoa.
Tyram: uh we interacted with Victor. Some This is your lore,
Walden Briarhelm: What?
Ellis Taylor: wood.
Luke Neverisky: And now he has
Tyram: Justin. This is an integral part of your backstory
Luke Neverisky: the pet dragon. So it's perfect.
Christopher Hooper: Um um an
Tyram: apparently. And now he has a pet dragon, which
Justin Hale: And it's
Christopher Hooper: untamed dragon. Yes, that's
Tyram: is Yeah. Like canonically completely tamed. You're you spent most of the last session like flying around on
Justin Hale: unmuted. I approve of that.
Tyram: its back doing sick aerial tricks and things like
Justin Hale: The other stuff was about as accurate as the green Power Ranger being.
Christopher Hooper: pretty.
Justin Hale: Like all I remember is
Luke Neverisky: All
Christopher Hooper: Um, you know, it's fine. I I would
Justin Hale: we have some like some some uh
Christopher Hooper: love
Justin Hale: anti human dragons going on.
Christopher Hooper: h*****. Is that what you said? I don't
Tyram: that.
Christopher Hooper: I don't remember that
Tyram: I think he's talking about like the
Justin Hale: Uh
Christopher Hooper: part,
Tyram: sexy dragon person from uh their
Justin Hale: Duncan and
Luke Neverisky: right.
Christopher Hooper: bro. Right.
Tyram: human. He picked the worst way to describe
Justin Hale: Betty. I mean, I didn't describe
Christopher Hooper: Right.
Tyram: it, but I think that's what he's talking
Ellis Taylor: How is
Justin Hale: it. Claude
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Ellis Taylor: your
Christopher Hooper: We look we look at the notes and it's like hint eye very
Ellis Taylor: almost forgot
Justin Hale: did.
Christopher Hooper: very hinty. Um people
Tyram: about.
Ellis Taylor: business? Just what every dragon trapper needs. One hand
Christopher Hooper: who were here or anyone uh you want to use your collective knowledge to
Ellis Taylor: comes the bleed and monstrous nightmare survival. The other sprays
Christopher Hooper: share what
Ellis Taylor: hideous simple back. Oh, this is
Luke Neverisky: There's some
Tyram: I think it's
Luke Neverisky: background. I think I hear a
Christopher Hooper: happened.
Tyram: Martha. That
Christopher Hooper: Cars Oh, all
Tyram: did sound Owen Wilson.
Ellis Taylor: smart. No, it's actually How to Train Your Dragon,
Justin Hale: ours. Oh, I thought I heard a country
Luke Neverisky: TV.
Christopher Hooper: right. Is Astro in that
Tyram: Okay. Oh well.
Ellis Taylor: too. It's Scottish.
Justin Hale: accent. Scottish country, same
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: one? Close

Justin Hale: day.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah, I am.
Christopher Hooper: enough.
Tyram: are uh Martha and
Walden Briarhelm: I've been walking
Luke Neverisky: And me,
Tyram: Ally. Okay.
Walden Briarhelm: around getting cables and power
Luke Neverisky: too. I'll be on a
Christopher Hooper: I'm I'm on the
Tyram: Whatever.
Walden Briarhelm: things. Get everything set
Justin Hale: My camera's on. I just walk around a lot. So,
Luke Neverisky: sec.
Walden Briarhelm: up.
Justin Hale: sometimes I'm in frame, sometimes I'm
Tyram: Okay. Fair enough.
Ellis Taylor: So much for us all being
Christopher Hooper: go. Yeah, we're all kind of on
Tyram: Well, hey, let's take
Ellis Taylor: so on time.
Christopher Hooper: time.
Tyram: advantage of it. Okay, so uh so last time
Justin Hale: not.
Tyram: um we started off by kind of planning uh how we were going to
Ellis Taylor: No, this is awesome.
Tyram: like get to Hell Judge and like retake
Luke Neverisky: against the
Tyram: The the first city. thing we did was go visit was go to the drop off point with the uh with all the gold that we stole for the dragons tribute and we uh had a discussion with the dragons. Um we revealed to the dragons that Helga Oh, hello young uh Francis. Yeah, we revealed to the dragons that Helga has been playing them for fools for a while. We also uh gave them the the gold and we gave them the
Luke Neverisky: Sorry,
Tyram: Bugatti, which Brew is totally cool
Justin Hale: Yeah, that's It's a good thing
Luke Neverisky: bro.
Justin Hale: I wasn't
Tyram: with. I think we actually said that like, uh, oh, Brew hates this, you
Christopher Hooper: I feel like we played it well.
Tyram: know. But yeah, um, yeah. Anyway, um we were able to show them that we have the orb and we also were able to tell them like, hey, like uh we can create an opportunity for you to go down to the ironclaw base and just
Justin Hale: there.
Tyram: wreck their s*** to get revenge. And so they uh they were after we made some persuasion checks, uh they were amenable to that plan and uh we're set to uh Martha correctly pointed out that we can actually just draw a line on our map with our magic paint to get them like
Justin Hale: That's
Luke Neverisky: I am built.
Tyram: straight f****** to it. So um Um, so yeah, they were amenable to that plan and uh yeah, so we are uh good. We got three days after that is
Justin Hale: true.
Tyram: when we're supposed to be doing the attack with the dragons. Um, we did we ran into Victor on the mountain who was collecting dragon s*** because he wanted to try to turn it into a bomb or something. I don't know. Victor does weird stuff all the time and I've honestly stopped questioning it.
Justin Hale: This is
Tyram: Um he revealed that apparently he had intended for us to blow up his own factory and that uh he was
Justin Hale: true.
Tyram: according to him at least I mean I don't know how trustworthy he is but he said he was doing it to try to uh make sure that Helga couldn't use the violescence to perform a
Luke Neverisky: Yes.
Tyram: ritual. Um but we took the violescence anyway so I feel like you know that's a wash. Um he said that he was going to go on to Crateport and so uh the seeds had been sewn for us to run into him there. Um we then went to uh to High Forge. We went back to Little Havvel where uh Helisana played her very first concert. We ran into this weedy little detective who uh apparently is looking for missing persons. one of the person he's looking for specifically was that uh yeah, Victor is not trustworthy. It's not blasphemy. But
Luke Neverisky: memories.
Tyram: um but this detective is looking for uh that very same girl that uh Silus rescued from the uh synthesis plant. The one who was like
Justin Hale: Oh
Tyram: trapped inside of like the experiment tube with all the other. She was the
Justin Hale: yeah.
Tyram: lucid one. Um, so yeah, he's looking for her and I was be like, "Oh, hey, we
Justin Hale: Mhm.
Tyram: saw her like I think it's been like two days or something like in game time, but yeah, we saw her recently." And so apparently we're uh going to pick up with that at some point apparently was the plan to like take part in this investigation to find uh what's her name? But I I'm sorry. I can't Oh, wait. It was April. It was like
Luke Neverisky: That sounds
Tyram: April Bonal or something like that, right? I remember it sounded like April O'Neal from the Teenage Mutant Ninja
Luke Neverisky: familiar.
Tyram: Turtles. But um anyway, um Helisana put on a kick-ass
Walden Briarhelm: What's
Tyram: concert. Um she managed to uh like kind
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Tyram: of envelop more of the impressionable youths of the city.
Walden Briarhelm: that?
Tyram: And apparently the force that drives her was telling her to start a killing spree, but she didn't. So um instead
Justin Hale: Whoa.
Tyram: she Yeah. So, apparently there's that's a thing that we're going to have to
Justin Hale: Was that in my
Tyram: uh try to make sure it doesn't happen, which is that uh I I don't think so, but the malevolent force that uh empowers Helisana apparently wants to have all
Justin Hale: notes?
Tyram: the all the tweakers. Yeah. But
Ali Leonard: It was vaguely in the notes.
Justin Hale: Resist mental compulsion to harm her
Tyram: apparently it wants to have all the tweakers start a uh basically like a
Luke Neverisky: Nah, it's
Tyram: like citywide genocide or whatever. Um so, we should
Justin Hale: allies. So the opposite of system of a down. Okay,
Tyram: probably stop that. And
Ali Leonard: Just early things.
Justin Hale: cool.
Tyram: um but um Helisana managed to keep her cool though and instead is directing all of our uh our headbangers to build us a kick-ass stage in the great hall,
Luke Neverisky: fine.
Tyram: I think it was, so that we can we can hold that giant concert at the same time the dragons are supposed to be coming and have the dragons and the the ravers converge on uh on Hell. Helisana's fortress. Not Hel at Helga's fortress in the
Luke Neverisky: Well done.
Tyram: forart. And that's where we left
Ali Leonard: As a player who ditched, I do have a
Tyram: off. Well, a player was here last week. I don't care. No, I'm just
Ali Leonard: question.
Tyram: kidding.
Ali Leonard: Why? I'll keep it to myself. But also, why did the dragons not want the
Tyram: They said they were going to try to take it, but like my count and I was actually worried
Walden Briarhelm: Awesome.
Tyram: they would kill me for a second, but um counter was
Ali Leonard: orb? For sure. You're very
Tyram: basically like can you move faster than I can think because I can
Ali Leonard: tiny.
Tyram: just use this to control you and like you know so why
Ali Leonard: Okay, I was
Tyram: don't you talk? So,
Ali Leonard: just wondering. Just wondering. Thank
Justin Hale: There's some
Tyram: yeah. So, that that was a real uh that was a real tense
Justin Hale: names.
Tyram: issue for a second there, but we managed to uh to
Justin Hale: So there's
Christopher Hooper: The notes will
Tyram: talk our way out of that
Ali Leonard: you.
[00:30:00]
Christopher Hooper: probably not mention that they had like a nat 20 and like a 27 and like very
Ali Leonard: It said 27 and then I was just like
Christopher Hooper: high.
Tyram: one.
Ali Leonard: I assume it had something to do with that conversation but it didn't
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, they had very good persuasion rules with the dragons. So everything worked out
Ali Leonard: mention
Justin Hale: uh there's the dragon
Christopher Hooper: very
Ali Leonard: yeah it's actually good I wasn't there
Justin Hale: lore.
Ali Leonard: because we would have
Christopher Hooper: well.
Ali Leonard: died been like immediately roll persuasion Mooney, you
Justin Hale: So, did we we learned more dragon
Ali Leonard: are on crack. Where did you get
Justin Hale: names last week? Is that what the dragon lore dump at the end is
Luke Neverisky: Oh yeah.
Tyram: Yeah, one of them was like uh they had like surprisingly normal ass
Justin Hale: about? Well,
Tyram: names. Oh, we also got like the big
Justin Hale: yeah.
Tyram: cosmic dragon. We know their name. And we also and apparently there's a
Justin Hale: Yeah.
Tyram: good guy dragon who's like uh the lover of Luna, the
Ali Leonard: that?
Tyram: l the moon goddess who like fell to Earth. Um I his name was cool. It was like Nixaros or something like
Ellis Taylor: There. There
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Tyram: that. That sounds right. I know it started with an N and
Ellis Taylor: we go.
Tyram: had an X in there somewhere. Um the evil dragon who's inside the orb, who's a completely different dragon, is like it's like
Justin Hale: There's astronom
Tyram: 25 letters long and yeah, it's Astro. It's Astro something something
Luke Neverisky: That's true.
Tyram: something. We're not supposed to say the name out loud. And honestly, I couldn't
Ali Leonard: Astronomicon. But that's the
Tyram: even if I tried as hard as I could. She who
Ali Leonard: one. She who shall not be
Tyram: shall not be named. Mrs. Everything from inside the
Ali Leonard: named. So the sexy
Tyram: orb.
Ali Leonard: dragons worship the orb dragon is what I
Tyram: Yes. Yeah. The red one was a red dragon, one was a black
Ali Leonard: got. But if we
Tyram: dragon, and yes, apparently they're on team orb
Ali Leonard: take So is
Tyram: dragon.
Ali Leonard: part of the negotiation that they get the orb in the
Tyram: We didn't tell them that. We just told them we were going to help them
Ali Leonard: end or no. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Tyram: sick. Uh we we just told them we were going to give them an opportunity to go kill
Ali Leonard: Okay.
Justin Hale: I know
Tyram: Helja. Yeah. I found the whole
Ali Leonard: Revenge. Which is fun for everyone. Okay. Good.
Tyram: family. Yeah. Hello, young
Ali Leonard: Cuz Yeah, just cuz you know prophecy. I don't have any cats
Justin Hale: that's
Ali Leonard: around our
Justin Hale: life.
Tyram: Astrid.
Ali Leonard: chicken.
Christopher Hooper: Hello. We're going to go to
Ali Leonard: Hi
Justin Hale: Hey,
Christopher Hooper: bed now. Good
Justin Hale: Thea. Come
Christopher Hooper: night.
Justin Hale: here. Look. Oh, where's the
Christopher Hooper: Okay. You sit
Justin Hale: P? Say hi.
Christopher Hooper: here.
Ali Leonard: I hear K-pop Demon
Justin Hale: There we go. Say hi.
Christopher Hooper: Hi.
Ali Leonard: Hunters. Which child household is listening to K-pop Demon
Ellis Taylor: I heard it
Justin Hale: Hi. Say good night. Good
Christopher Hooper: Good night.
Tyram: What about K-pop demon
Ali Leonard: Hunters? One of the child's households is listening
Ellis Taylor: too. I heard it too,
Ali Leonard: to K-pop Demon
Justin Hale: night. Good
Tyram: hunters?
Ali Leonard: Hunters. I assumed it wasn't
Justin Hale: night.
Tyram: I'm sorry. What was I saying? What?
Justin Hale: Oh, you can't see
Ali Leonard: Taylor. It's
Ellis Taylor: Ally. There it
Justin Hale: it. We uh we watched it recently and now we're
Tyram: It's really
Ellis Taylor: is.
Justin Hale: hooked. It is very
Ali Leonard: Justin. That's so
Justin Hale: good. See absolutely loves the song Golden. She asks for the song
Ali Leonard: good.
Justin Hale: Golden all the
Tyram: good. I'm not a huge K-pop guy, but all the songs are legit like just brainworms, you
Justin Hale: time. So, I am a pretty big K-pop fan. And the funny part
Tyram: know?
Justin Hale: is all of my K-pop playlists that are autogenerated have had all these songs on them and I didn't know that's what they were from. So when I was watching the movie I was like, "Oh god, I know all of these songs
Tyram: Yeah, the songs are just like legit good songs apparently. Not like they they've been like on the top of the charts for like last few
Justin Hale: already." Yeah, it's good
Tyram: weeks it
Ellis Taylor: They got robbed at the
Justin Hale: stuff. Surprise.
Tyram: seems. Bastard.
Justin Hale: They're going to make two more of these movies,
Tyram: Two
Justin Hale: eh? Yeah, that's uh that's what I read
Luke Neverisky: Yeah, why not?
Ellis Taylor: BMAS. Yeah, but the main
Tyram: more.
Ellis Taylor: like showrunner or something is not on the project anymore,
Justin Hale: recently. What the hell? Well,
Ellis Taylor: so I'm nervous.
Justin Hale: anything worth doing is worth overdoing with television. It's got to be
Ellis Taylor: I have questions.
Justin Hale: um it's got to be lucrative lucrative enough to run to the
Christopher Hooper: I'm
Tyram: Oh.
Justin Hale: ground.
Christopher Hooper: I'm almost ready, but y'all should discuss what y'all want to do next than what what you're actually Right.
Justin Hale: I think we break the fourth wall and make uh medium talk to
Tyram: Okay. So,
Justin Hale: himself
Tyram: um we've got a few days before the dragon attack. So, we got to try to coordinate having the concert like just before the dragons arrive so that like we can get them like pinser movementing on like the
Justin Hale: for
Luke Neverisky: Yes. The next three
Tyram: iron claws, you know, like attacking from two directions at the same time. So, theoretically, we got a couple of days to just
Luke Neverisky: days.
Tyram: like do s*** and get ready, which I would definitely say we should uh take a long rest when we get
Luke Neverisky: Mhm. I agree with that.
Tyram: a chance.
Luke Neverisky: Are we going to go take a long rest at um Isa's apartment still up? Yeah, it's still up,
Tyram: Oh, yeah. We That's something we talked about last time was going to go try to
Luke Neverisky: right? Yeah, that's
Tyram: check out Olivia's apartment.
Ellis Taylor: No, I was under the assumption it was like swarmed with iron
Tyram: Yeah. Yeah. We can go see
Ellis Taylor: claws, but we can if we feel like it's
Luke Neverisky: right. We're
Tyram: if that's the case at least. Yeah.
Ellis Taylor: safe.
Luke Neverisky: clear.
Tyram: Um, and if that I'm sure we can find a place to sleep if that doesn't pan out. So, um, I guess we could also uh since we have some uh time before we and apparently all of your headbangers are building the stage for us, but I don't know if like uh Brew and Brew and Ellith want
Ali Leonard: It's up to
Tyram: to like start working on special effects and stuff. It's a real banger of a concert,
Ali Leonard: code.
Luke Neverisky: True. It's
Tyram: you know. Um, but we might also, I guess, have time to try to follow up on April if we wanted to do
Luke Neverisky: true. That's true. Do we
Ali Leonard: protective.
Luke Neverisky: remember is she in the do we have reason to believe she's in the city or like total
Tyram: that. Last time we saw her, she was like, it was weeks ago for us, but apparently it was only a couple
Ali Leonard: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: cold
Tyram: of days ago when we were doing the the bombing raid. That's when we last saw her.
Luke Neverisky: right all right so I guess that would be probably a good way to kill
Tyram: Wasn't there like a a followup we could maybe go after? Like, wasn't it like some sort of like Do you guys remember what it was? Was it like a pizza
Luke Neverisky: What's the
Tyram: place or something that we were supposed to go look at
Luke Neverisky: place? Um
Tyram: or There was some
Ellis Taylor: I wrote
Tyram: sort of establishment that we were supposed to go look at, but I don't remember what
Ellis Taylor: next time. Yeah,
Tyram: kind.
Ellis Taylor: I said wrote I wrote down next time follow up on April
Justin Hale: Okay. It's
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Ellis Taylor: leads. I think one of the guys owned a pizza
Tyram: Okay. It was a pizza place,
Ellis Taylor: place nearby like really like right next to where we are.
Tyram: right? Yeah. I mean, either way, we should
Luke Neverisky: Okay.
Tyram: go to the pizza place because, you know,
Justin Hale: Wait,
Luke Neverisky: f*** yeah.
Tyram: everyone likes pizza except for that sick degenerate.
Walden Briarhelm: Well, I think if we go to a pizza place, I'm going to have
Justin Hale: Daddy.
Walden Briarhelm: to try it. It's been the
Luke Neverisky: Peace.
Ellis Taylor: He almost gonna have to do a constitution saving
Walden Briarhelm: talk. Deal. 100%
Ellis Taylor: throw to see if he becomes addicted to pizza or not.
Justin Hale: and develops a
Tyram: worse things to be
Luke Neverisky: This is true. This is
Tyram: addicted
Ali Leonard: Thank
Walden Briarhelm: deal. I like
Luke Neverisky: very
Tyram: to. I mean, Helisana's got whatever she's addicted to.
Ali Leonard: you.
Walden Briarhelm: it.
Justin Hale: Brooklyn. Depends on the
Luke Neverisky: true.
Tyram: That seems way worse than pizza.
Justin Hale: pizza, I guess.
Luke Neverisky: Debatable.
Justin Hale: He's addicted to pineapple pizza. Yeah, that's
Luke Neverisky: I mean,
Walden Briarhelm: Metal. I'm addicted to metal.
Luke Neverisky: yes. All right. Uh, so we need to figure out what play is
Justin Hale: worse.
Luke Neverisky: called. I guess that's logical next step to figure out what's the only lead we got,
Ali Leonard: Tuesday, former NXT
Luke Neverisky: right?
Christopher Hooper: Let's see. Are y'all still y'all are still at the little
Ali Leonard: champions turn
Luke Neverisky: At
Christopher Hooper: Hubble, right? Is that where we ended? I think
Tyram: I I think
Justin Hale: You got to do
Christopher Hooper: so. Um, so, uh,
Ali Leonard: WWE. Don't miss
Christopher Hooper: recently hired detective,
Tyram: so.
Ali Leonard: him.
Christopher Hooper: um, Chalk Rock is, I think, still prowling around, um,
Justin Hale: this.
Luke Neverisky: least I got
Christopher Hooper: with Kit Kat and
Luke Neverisky: Snickers. That's all right.
Christopher Hooper: Snickers.
Tyram: Oh, yeah. They were April's friends. Oh, and it was established last time that like there was a maybe a chance that they could have like fallen in love with each other at some point in their past, but that they they never seized the moment. And so like that's there's this
Luke Neverisky: Silus, time to work your magic again.
Tyram: unspoken thing between them.
Walden Briarhelm: Oh,
Tyram: I think
Walden Briarhelm: silence. Yeah,
Luke Neverisky: Yeah, let's
Tyram: they're both married now if I remember correctly. There we
Walden Briarhelm: matchmaker. Yeah, never
Luke Neverisky: make sure
Walden Briarhelm: mind.
Justin Hale: All's fair and love and war.
Walden Briarhelm: Uh Toeer, if you're there, could you uh set the scene? Like a lot of stuff is building up when there's a very very quick turnaround of three days where we have to be ready for basically war. Is that how you guys
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Yeah.
Tyram: go. Big ass battle at least.
Walden Briarhelm: would describe this? Let's
Christopher Hooper: Let me let me uh lay down some of the key facts that you're missing. Um
Tyram: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: so, uh importantly, the pizza place is called Ratty's
Luke Neverisky: Thank you. Thank you.
[00:40:00]
Christopher Hooper: Piland, owned by Bernardo. And Bernardo is a toral. And uh we learned that torals uh worship the moon goddess that got blown out of the sky and the and she loved this dragon god. And how does that fit in the broader
Walden Briarhelm: go. Yep.
Christopher Hooper: context? You don't know. It doesn't make any sense. The timeline doesn't make any
Luke Neverisky: Sh.
Christopher Hooper: sense because they were lovers before she got blown up. And did the dragons arrive before or after? It doesn't make any sense. Brew knows they arrived before um the
Justin Hale: I know a lot of things that don't make sense.
Christopher Hooper: uh you have ravers and they're building you a stage, but will they continue to listen? Cuz all you told them was build a stage and are they going to come back or are they going to go do drugs in the lake again or
Luke Neverisky: I hope
Christopher Hooper: listen to pop music? What's going to happen? The dragons are going to arrive in 3 days. probably closer to two and a half by now. And are they going to listen to you?
Tyram: This
Christopher Hooper: Well, you did give them
Tyram: is such a whiny
Luke Neverisky: not.
Christopher Hooper: Well, uh, if you want if you want the non whiny, you do it
Justin Hale: Damn. Got
Christopher Hooper: yourself.
Tyram: recap. I said everything that
Justin Hale: him.
Christopher Hooper: Um, you didn't mention Ratty's Pand.
Tyram: mattered.
Justin Hale: Ran by Maro.
Christopher Hooper: Um, and so,
Tyram: I kind of remember the name of the place. I just remembered a pizza
Christopher Hooper: um, it's Ratty's Pand and the dragons are going to wait for you. Uh, and if you don't give them a magical hole straight
Tyram: place.
Christopher Hooper: to where they need to go, then they're going to destroy the whole
Justin Hale: Is that what they sound
Christopher Hooper: city. And uh, kind of um, and
Justin Hale: like?
Christopher Hooper: Victor wanted dragon poop for his explosives. And, uh, now he's off to Great, which you
Tyram: I did say
Christopher Hooper: mentioned. And let's see what else. Oh. Um, let's see. I think that's it. Oh, yeah. Uh, you also learned that, um, April Bonal
Tyram: that.
Christopher Hooper: was hanging out with, um, Casey
Justin Hale: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: Amen.
Christopher Hooper: Bones. Um, and Bernardo at the, uh, Ratty's Piland. Um, one thing that you would probably So, you've been going around the city, you know, fairly willy-nilly. And a part of this is because you've got those disguises. And so, even though there are like ironclaw patrols, like y'all have kind of gamed out like
Justin Hale: Daddy.
Christopher Hooper: staying subtle, like going around the city in your disguises, so it's like
Luke Neverisky: Sound
Christopher Hooper: not a big deal. Um, so if you want to check out Olivia's apartment, it's probably going to be fine. It's probably not a big
Luke Neverisky: good.
Christopher Hooper: deal. I don't know why you'all keep making a big deal out of it.
Justin Hale: I'm
Christopher Hooper: Um, uh, something to the way I see your current plan happening is a concert in
Justin Hale: scared.
Christopher Hooper: the great hall, which is, um, goes directly from the like great uh, gate to the um, the forge gate. connecting to the four chart. And so what you know about that is that
Justin Hale: What is
Christopher Hooper: there is a great stone and
Justin Hale: it? Huh?
Christopher Hooper: iron Hi. Um there's a great stone and iron gate that separates the great hall from the forge heart. And that's going to be where you you'll need to deal with that at some point if that's your plan to go from the great hall to the forge heart. Um, and I I think you all know enough to know that you don't really have control of the ravers yet if you want to use them at this battle. Um, so you'll probably have to do more to to get
Luke Neverisky: All right, I just got to
Christopher Hooper: that closed up. Um,
Luke Neverisky: continually play
Christopher Hooper: yeah, you've got to play music till
Luke Neverisky: music.
Christopher Hooper: the day you die. And uh but and that's kind of I assumed where you're spending most of your time over the next couple days is um is infiltrating the raers and trying to to to fully control them and get them on your
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. So, we learned that there they congregate in
Justin Hale: What are the
Luke Neverisky: the under lake area and we happened or I happened to whatever
Christopher Hooper: side.
Luke Neverisky: capture jam whatever obviously just a small subsection that that happened to be at the the hollow at that
Justin Hale: things?
Luke Neverisky: time. So, okay.
Christopher Hooper: I was trying to listen harder and
Luke Neverisky: I hate when that
Christopher Hooper: instead I hung up.
Luke Neverisky: happens. So, we know that the Ravers had bangers, whatever, like they're primarily at the underllay. Uh I just happen to nab, you know, whoever happened to be the little hobble. That's a that's a small subset
Justin Hale: That's Right. Come on,
Luke Neverisky: fishision. Is that a correct assessment?
Christopher Hooper: It seemed like they were at the Little Havvel because of your concert there.
Justin Hale: baby.
Christopher Hooper: Um, and like what you what Helisana would know is that there are these Nexis around the city
Luke Neverisky: Okay.
Christopher Hooper: that serve as points of control um over the raers. Little Havvel being one of them. And it seems like something is is at the under lake that is
Luke Neverisky: Got it.
Christopher Hooper: controlling them there.
Luke Neverisky: Okay. Uh the pelisan is that
Ellis Taylor: So we got to kill
Justin Hale: There's I'm asking
Luke Neverisky: she's going to want to prioritize that because more fans equals more ears for her music.
Ellis Taylor: that.
Christopher Hooper: Oh, it's Justin with the background noise
Justin Hale: Oh, is
Tyram: Damn you,
Christopher Hooper: now.
Justin Hale: it? That's surprising. My AirPods usually cut all that out. Sorry,
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Justin Hale: guys.
Christopher Hooper: Um, I think the singing was was too too
Justin Hale: So angelic and permeate.
Christopher Hooper: good this time.
Tyram: Justin.
Christopher Hooper: Um, yeah. So, you might have something in the underllay to fight if you want the raers help, but if you don't, then that's fine. You can just fight
Luke Neverisky: You
Christopher Hooper: the iron claws without
Luke Neverisky: guys, there are fans that haven't listened to my music lately. I'm going to want to f****** go
Christopher Hooper: them. Yeah, there's like a rock crowd that like isn't
Luke Neverisky: there.
Walden Briarhelm: But how do we how do we get them all
Christopher Hooper: indoctrinated by you
Luke Neverisky: What?
Walden Briarhelm: to come together for a another
Luke Neverisky: You just you just play anyway.
Christopher Hooper: yet.
Luke Neverisky: The day it'll
Walden Briarhelm: concert? Oh, you you you certainly are that famous. But how do we get more
Luke Neverisky: come. There's like this place some bunch of lake s*** where they they hang out and you know it's probably good. That's that that's what's the word I'm looking for? Uh
Walden Briarhelm: people? So, let's go into the sketchiest parts of the unders city and we will
Justin Hale: We can always radio
Walden Briarhelm: play a concert for your raas.
Justin Hale: broadcast
Luke Neverisky: h. Oh
Walden Briarhelm: Now that is a very smart idea. Brew, as always, you are the smart
Justin Hale: it. Shut up, baby. I know
Luke Neverisky: s***. I mean, I don't know. I'll drink the challenge. You guys, well, you know, you want to do a radio thing
Justin Hale: it.
Luke Neverisky: or whatever, you know, it's fine. Whatever.
Walden Briarhelm: one. What if we had else drive around the city in her car playing your music very loudly and it would gather them together and maybe they would follow everyone into a large crowd where you could just be ready
Luke Neverisky: I like
Ali Leonard: I love where your head's
Walden Briarhelm: to
Ali Leonard: at. I thought we were keeping it
Walden Briarhelm: play.
Justin Hale: You hear
Walden Briarhelm: I was a bit absent- minded from last week. I apologize for not
Justin Hale: that?
Tyram: I mean, would anyone dare to step up to us when we're driving around in a
Walden Briarhelm: considering Thank
Tyram: Ford
Ali Leonard: lowkey. I'm happy to
Walden Briarhelm: you.
Ali Leonard: to wave that fort around.
Tyram: F-150?
Ali Leonard: I wonder if somebody would stop us
Justin Hale: You
Luke Neverisky: these.
Ali Leonard: just cuz like coveted, you know?
Justin Hale: could have done it in the Bugatti and out thrown everybody, but well, you had to give it to
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Justin Hale: the dragons.
Tyram: The dragons really wanted
Ali Leonard: There was a
Justin Hale: Yeah,
Tyram: it. It's too bad that you were off flying on
Ali Leonard: laptop. He wasn't able
Tyram: Pepsi's back last week while that or earlier today when that
Justin Hale: but the dragons want lots of things. All of the gold
Tyram: happened.
Walden Briarhelm: Oh, that reminds
Justin Hale: in the world. All the people, you don't give them those
Tyram: The point is is that we're
Justin Hale: either. And named
Tyram: establishing in canon that your dragon is
Justin Hale: Pepsi. Yes.
Tyram: tame and named Pepsi. Of course, whatever the hell
Ali Leonard: to
Walden Briarhelm: me. You said his name is
Justin Hale: Well, all you need to know is it's better
Luke Neverisky: D's terrible.
Tyram: that is.
Walden Briarhelm: Pepsi.
Justin Hale: than
Tyram: Yeah.
Walden Briarhelm: Yeah. Where did you Where did you come up with this name?
Justin Hale: co. Uh, it comes from the
Tyram: Impossible.
Walden Briarhelm: Pepsi. Where where does that come from?
Ellis Taylor: As you can
Justin Hale: heavens.
Ali Leonard: Peebis, also known
Ellis Taylor: see, just like I
Justin Hale: As ironic as I'm drinking a
Luke Neverisky: Is it?
Tyram: One
Ali Leonard: as I'm cooking
Justin Hale: Coke. I can't buy
Tyram: of us. One of
Ali Leonard: Pepsi.
Ellis Taylor: promised.
Justin Hale: a 24 pack of Pepsi at Costco. I have to buy a 24 pack of
Christopher Hooper: All
Ali Leonard: we needed for the
Justin Hale: Coke. We bought
Ali Leonard: pulled pork today. So, we had like
Ellis Taylor: Oh,
Justin Hale: a 24 flat of Coke like a year ago and we're still drinking on
Christopher Hooper: right. Okay.
Tyram: us.
Ellis Taylor: wow. You're
Tyram: Does coke last that
Ali Leonard: a

Walden Briarhelm: we're trying to organize how we're going to carry out the next three
Tyram: it looks like we're getting like uh we're going to be getting involved in like
Ali Leonard: part
Christopher Hooper: So,
Tyram: u cosmic warfare relatively soon,
Ali Leonard: of the hiring
Tyram: but hopefully it won't get in the way of us starting a thriving food
Walden Briarhelm: days. Yeah. Afterwards. That's a great fallback. Like that'll really give us something to put our
Christopher Hooper: Well, all right. I
Tyram: truck.
Ali Leonard: process. They're
Walden Briarhelm: minds to.
Ellis Taylor: You
Christopher Hooper: can give you the facts about this place. Firstly,
Ali Leonard: making
Ellis Taylor: know
Christopher Hooper: it was made by a um a mouse folk um
Ali Leonard: you
Christopher Hooper: thousands of years ago and then taken over by dwarves when they took over this mountain. And um they since implemented
Ellis Taylor: what?

Ellis Taylor: to let
Christopher Hooper: its thin crust and tons of tomato sauce. Um and uh you can choose
Tyram: f*** you guys. Mountain
Ali Leonard: Freaking Mountain
Christopher Hooper: whatever topping you want. This place uh claims to give uh
Ali Leonard: Dwarfs.
Christopher Hooper: 20 different toppings and you can do whatever combination you want without um any judgment. That's what they say, a judgment-free pizza place. Um, they
Ali Leonard: Uhhuh. Why did you say they would judge
Ellis Taylor: it show what you can find.
Christopher Hooper: won't judge you.
Tyram: doors. We're getting contradicting information
Ali Leonard: us? Uhhuh.
Christopher Hooper: I just said if you want pizza, you're going to have to pay a little extra for
Tyram: here.
Christopher Hooper: it if you get my
Walden Briarhelm: Is the amount of ingredients available a good indicator of
Christopher Hooper: dread.
Tyram: I feel like I feel like you're
Ali Leonard: Yeah.
Walden Briarhelm: salad pizza? I am so excited. You keep talking about
Tyram: saying that like in a sinister sounding way, but if like you're just paying
Walden Briarhelm: it.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Tyram: for top like if we pay like a set price per topping. Yeah. That's like
Ali Leonard: Yeah, for toppings. That's
Ellis Taylor: f******
Christopher Hooper: Oh, they'll make you
Tyram: just that's standard pizza
Ellis Taylor: friends challenge you.
Christopher Hooper: pay for the cheese topping. Yes,

Tyram: cheese. Well, honestly, Styles will
Ali Leonard: cheese? Cheese is
Ellis Taylor: doing?
Christopher Hooper: cheese.
Tyram: probably know the drug lingo now that I think about it.
Ali Leonard: our cheese is my
Walden Briarhelm: Omar's the almost the only one who doesn't get the reference like that doesn't have any other meaning. You're just
Luke Neverisky: But
Tyram: Well, I think there's a solid chance that Ellsworth wouldn't
Walden Briarhelm: like, "Wow, you guys are very into this cheese market.
Ellis Taylor: My
Tyram: know, but as a detective, surely Olivia would
Ali Leonard: favorite. For sure it doesn't.
Tyram: know. And as a criminal, surely Stilus would know. And Brew theoretically should know, but
Ellis Taylor: dear
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, I don't think Brew would care about
Tyram: Brew's also like, you know, it it's
Ellis Taylor: probably. Think you can stop
Christopher Hooper: that.
Tyram: Yeah. like Drew like it's a it's a pretty eclectic mix of things he does
Ellis Taylor: looking
Tyram: and does not
Ellis Taylor: for more than
Christopher Hooper: Um, all right. And the owner currently is on a vacation and the torto Bernardo has been seeing
Ali Leonard: Early to
Christopher Hooper: after the establishment for the past six months. No one knows where the owner of Ratty's Pand has
Tyram: know. Ah damn it, another
Ali Leonard: That's
Ellis Taylor: enough. I mean, he is
Christopher Hooper: gone. No, that mystery. We don't care about that one.
Tyram: missing person.
Ellis Taylor: one of the ones that got taken for the experiment,
Christopher Hooper: Let's stay focused. That's what Olivia always tells
Ali Leonard: ominous.
Christopher Hooper: me. I'm I'm sorry. My
Ellis Taylor: right? I always tell you
Christopher Hooper: my figurine of of Olivia that I keep on my desk. That's what you always
Ali Leonard: Have you listened to her

Ali Leonard: lettuce on the pizza.
Justin Hale: has these toppings?
Christopher Hooper: I don't know. I mean, it's on the
Justin Hale: All
Christopher Hooper: menu. That's why I've been

Walden Briarhelm: Could it be
Christopher Hooper: studying. Yeah. I don't know. Pizza's
Ali Leonard: apples and blueberries and
Christopher Hooper: garbage. Pizza's stupid. I don't know why you're getting on me about
Ali Leonard: lettuce. You're garbage and you're
Walden Briarhelm: food? Even with my very limited opinions on pizza, I stand by that
Christopher Hooper: it. What? I mean, y'all are
Walden Briarhelm: you are wrong on this
Christopher Hooper: telling me that you don't like pizza with apples and blueberries
Ali Leonard: stupid.
Walden Briarhelm: decision.
Justin Hale: right.
Christopher Hooper: on it, and yet you're getting mad at me about
Ellis Taylor: I'm not gonna lie. I had a pizza last week that had apple slices on. It was very
Luke Neverisky: I was about to say if you could try
Ali Leonard: I feel like it can be done well. I really do. There's a
Ellis Taylor: good. Apples and
Tyram: Martha, why'd you have to tell us that? That's such a disappointing thing to
Ali Leonard: pizza place here that does good stuff like that. Like one with lemon. Yeah, it was
Christopher Hooper: it.
Tyram: hear. All right, but you know
Ali Leonard: really
Ellis Taylor: sausage.
Tyram: what? We were we had gotten away from this guy. We
Ali Leonard: good.
Tyram: were free to actually progress things, but you have sucked us back in to the chalk rock vortex, and I will not forgive you for
Christopher Hooper: I'm right
Tyram: this, shut up. No one asked
Walden Briarhelm: I am learning slowly. I am still learning how to to to run with this group. I am
Christopher Hooper: here. Wait, so did you find did you find cheese in the

Christopher Hooper: Oh, fingerprints, right? Oh,
Walden Briarhelm: investigate over there.
Christopher Hooper: s***. I forgot my fingerprint kit at home. All right, y'all stay

Walden Briarhelm: uh as you're starting to leave, I'm going to turn and I'm going to do the wink thing
Christopher Hooper: Zach.
Walden Briarhelm: again. It silus is like a just to see. And
Ali Leonard: Let's see the
Walden Briarhelm: uh I got rid of
Tyram: Good job. But don't wink. Don't ever
Walden Briarhelm: him. I'm sensing
Ali Leonard: waters.
Walden Briarhelm: that the wink is not well like and I am imagining like a
Tyram: wink.
Walden Briarhelm: really big like it's not
Christopher Hooper: like a whale's
Tyram: Okay. But hey, Olivia, I don't know if there's like the system
Walden Briarhelm: like a
Christopher Hooper: eye.
Tyram: in place for doing this right now, but you might consider getting a restraining order on this
Walden Briarhelm: small
Ali Leonard: Yeah, for
Ellis Taylor: Um, yeah, I have it on my to-do list once
Tyram: guy.
Ali Leonard: sure. I mean, he's gonna
Walden Briarhelm: What
Ellis Taylor: once there's an actual like court system again. We'll
Ali Leonard: end up killing all of us.
Ellis Taylor: see. Yeah, I He's
Christopher Hooper: Hey, this is his case. Y'all could leave
Ellis Taylor: getting stalker
Christopher Hooper: anytime.
Tyram: Yes.
Ali Leonard: and we're doing so right
Ellis Taylor: vibes. Toeer, are you trying to force us to leave? You're the one that
Christopher Hooper: Don't Don't put a restraining order on
Ellis Taylor: gave us this mystery.
Christopher Hooper: a detective just doing his job just because he doesn't like
Walden Briarhelm: happens?
Justin Hale: Yeah, that that's the reason. That's
Tyram: You know, it's a lot more than I mean,
Ali Leonard: now. There's so many other
Ellis Taylor: No, he's he's a little too big of a
Justin Hale: absolutely the
Tyram: the pizza is honestly pretty high on my list for not liking this guy, but it's there's
Justin Hale: reason.
Christopher Hooper: pizza.
Tyram: other things, too, like his like figurines are pretty
Ali Leonard: reasons. The figurines are pretty number one for me.
Tyram: creepy. Um, he's he is a terrible detective. Just objectively a terrible detective.
[01:30:00]
Ellis Taylor: fan. I mean, he did find out a lot of pretty good
Tyram: Well, maybe he should just like
Ali Leonard: He forgot
Ellis Taylor: stuff. when he came to questioning and then a lot of ill when
Tyram: stick to the maybe he should just stick to like the the
Ellis Taylor: basically when Poper was the top top what's
Tyram: paperwork part of being a detective because he's really bad at the the footwork part, you
Ali Leonard: it. The detective
Ellis Taylor: up he just needs he needs some learning Thanks.
Ali Leonard: part.
Walden Briarhelm: I will say that even as a monk who has had to rehearse prayer and mantra, it is weird that he speaks quotes directly
Tyram: know?
Walden Briarhelm: from Olivia Kubo many times. He seems to be crossing a line and the pizza
Christopher Hooper: Um, cool. So,
Walden Briarhelm: thing.
Christopher Hooper: uh, you found some apples and you found some cheese and your lettuce and blueberries in the freezer. You found a a sewer
Justin Hale: Yeah, the the
Christopher Hooper: gate. Um, anything else you want to check out in this
Ali Leonard: CL, we've done so much.
Justin Hale: sewer the super
Christopher Hooper: place? Oh, you want to check out the sewer
Ali Leonard: pretty much solved
Luke Neverisky: Mhm. I
Justin Hale: great. Yeah, that would be
Tyram: That's where the the path led,
Walden Briarhelm: Yeah. Yeah, let's do
Luke Neverisky: guess the
Justin Hale: great.
Christopher Hooper: gate? Yeah. Yeah. But I just want to check make
Ali Leonard: it. But there's apples in the freezer, so we did have
Walden Briarhelm: that.
Justin Hale: Huffer's a big fan of
Christopher Hooper: sure there's
Tyram: right?
Ali Leonard: to check that out
Justin Hale: one particular fish and it's
Luke Neverisky: drug
Christopher Hooper: that. Um All right. So, you're able
Luke Neverisky: Um, I'm
Christopher Hooper: uh who's leading
Ali Leonard: first.
Luke Neverisky: gonna lead because there might be drugs and that sounds
Christopher Hooper: here? Okay,
Luke Neverisky: fun.
Justin Hale: red.
Christopher Hooper: cool. All right. So, in my mind,
Walden Briarhelm: Good
Ellis Taylor: Wait, leading. She's just scrambling ahead us. Ahead of
Luke Neverisky: Yes, I'm trying trying to distance myself
Tyram: I feel like I feel like I'm going to follow Olivia's lead on like investigating a crime. So,
Ellis Taylor: us. Yes. I don't mind going first, but I will give you a heads up. Keith is
Tyram: yeah.
Walden Briarhelm: work.
Ellis Taylor: still not home and I got to start bedtime in like 30 minutes.
Luke Neverisky: between
Christopher Hooper: like you're a silent
Ali Leonard: records with hands.

Christopher Hooper: leader.
Ali Leonard: Is
Walden Briarhelm: Uh's gonna take up the
Ellis Taylor: bud. Yeah.
Tyram: Okay.
Walden Briarhelm: rear because he's he's good having his back to the
Ellis Taylor: covered in ice buddies.
Christopher Hooper: In my mind, like Helisana
Walden Briarhelm: uh to the back of the
Christopher Hooper: is like animemaniac style, like has like oh wolf hounds like uh you know dog like like sniffing around and trying to fight the
Walden Briarhelm: group.
Luke Neverisky: thing is
Christopher Hooper: drugs. Um you uh
Ali Leonard: that again?
Christopher Hooper: with Olivia, retired detective Olivia Cooper right on your back.
Luke Neverisky: Good.
Christopher Hooper: Um y'all, uh lift up the sewer grade and begin to head down into the sewers. Um you you descend down this
Ali Leonard: Stop
Christopher Hooper: um iron uh ladder uh deep into um hard stone and rock. And it takes you into a sewerway
Ali Leonard: for Travis
Christopher Hooper: and you can just make out an uh a little fire
Ali Leonard: one
Christopher Hooper: uh little fire light an encampment and you can see three
Ali Leonard: Here they
Christopher Hooper: figures. Um Brew especially with your passive perception can hear a little bit of a conversation happening. Um and you see three figures all huddled around this fire and they appear to be eating pizza and chatting uh pretty casually.
Justin Hale: What do they
Christopher Hooper: Um, Elisa, since you're um you
Ali Leonard: are.
Christopher Hooper: can't uh you want to give me a perception
Justin Hale: think? 10.
Christopher Hooper: check? Um, you can't make it out from the distance. Uh, especially with the reverberation and all the sounds of the sewer. You can just you can hear that they're talking but can't make out the details.
Ali Leonard: Watch the
Christopher Hooper: Um, Helana, if you're leading, uh, I'm gonna say you
Ali Leonard: wall.
Christopher Hooper: can kind of, um, have the spotlight here. Uh, what are you
Luke Neverisky: So, there are three people off in the distance. Um, do I see anything that any like uh uh crates or anything like that? Boxes or anything that might hold something of of
Christopher Hooper: doing? Yeah. So
Ali Leonard: love. And here
Luke Neverisky: interest?
Christopher Hooper: uh to give you a better uh mind's eye view there are
Ali Leonard: comes
Christopher Hooper: these you know circular sewer ways and one is basically ending into this drop off that is basically drops off into this larger almost completely square room with um sewer sewer ways going um each cardinal direction into And when you peek down in, you see this encampment in the
Luke Neverisky: Got
Christopher Hooper: middle. And all around them, you see a couple tents. There's um a whole stack of crates beside them to the wall up to the side. Um and there are just ladders coming down the the sewer
Luke Neverisky: something. Is there is there a
Christopher Hooper: ways down into
Luke Neverisky: ladder like where I'm standing at the at the edge?
Christopher Hooper: there.
Luke Neverisky: Okay. Um and I saw three
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: people he said or three. Okay. Um well I'm going to go down the ladder
Christopher Hooper: Yuck.
Luke Neverisky: then.
Christopher Hooper: Okay. Are you trying to be quiet or
Luke Neverisky: Um,
Christopher Hooper: no? All right. Uh, cool. Yeah. So, um it's not long after you descend the ladder that you kind of hear the voices behind you quiet down and uh you hear, "Hey, hey, who is
Luke Neverisky: no. Oh, you never know. Uh, you don't even know who Elisa Doomfall is. Maybe you've heard of my music. I happen

Ali Leonard: You
Walden Briarhelm: a pizza is. Perhaps perhaps you could help me
Ali Leonard: see right
Walden Briarhelm: learn. But for now, what uh what has you here in this stoway area in the sewers?
Christopher Hooper: Oh, well, um, you know, I just kind of ended up in the city and I took this pizza job from this guy and then he was like, "Well, you
Ali Leonard: All
Christopher Hooper: got it figured out, so you can run the place without me." And uh I just ran this like rat pizza place for a while and oh my god the things the toppings they have there and you have to pay extra for cheese. It's crazy. Um anyway
Ali Leonard: right.
Christopher Hooper: um apparently like pizza is normally not like
Walden Briarhelm: Yes, I am. I am
Christopher Hooper: that. And uh we we got uh some I I learned to make this style pizza. It's got more of a pie crust but it's got tomato sauce and cheese and it's good. And you can put like pepperoni. You want
Walden Briarhelm: also. Oh. All
Ali Leonard: closer. You
Walden Briarhelm: right. I'm gonna turn and look at the group. Who do I meet eyes

Tyram: upstairs, right?
Christopher Hooper: similar to classic style pizza.
Ali Leonard: I can Elizabeth ask for a
Walden Briarhelm: back?
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.

Ellis Taylor: Maybe
Christopher Hooper: crust, you know, almost it it's almost like a fkaca style uh crust. Like it's fluffy, but
Ali Leonard: fine. It's
Christopher Hooper: it does have a very nice like oregano smell coming from the pizza or from the tomato
Ellis Taylor: you
Christopher Hooper: sauce. And it looks like there's three different cheeses that are melted onto the
Ali Leonard: okay.
Ellis Taylor: think
Christopher Hooper: top. Oh,
Walden Briarhelm: Oh, did you say three?
Christopher Hooper: yes. Yes, master. I've I've really dedicated myself to this art. That's what they always say at the monastery. If you going to do anything, dedicate yourself to
Ellis Taylor: Try
Walden Briarhelm: Oh yes, I'm glad you continue to follow the principles, but I've only heard of two layers of cheese. Three? Again, I look around the group
Ellis Taylor: another treat.
Ali Leonard: It's some sometimes
Walden Briarhelm: like three layers of cheese. Like, are we are am I getting
Ellis Taylor: Olivia's like Olivia's giving the thumbs up. This
Ali Leonard: Sometimes you can mix four or five kinds of
Ellis Taylor: sounds
Christopher Hooper: it. Yeah.

Walden Briarhelm: excitement?
Tyram: really as much cheese as you

Christopher Hooper: Master. Oh,
Walden Briarhelm: triangle and like it's going to like just pull the cheese up without
Christopher Hooper: yeah. Oh.
Walden Briarhelm: the crust. The crust is just big enough and it's like a
Ali Leonard: Yeah.
Walden Briarhelm: messy bite. Like not horrible, but like it gets a little bit
Christopher Hooper: Uhhuh.
Walden Briarhelm: on the lip and stuff and it's weird. And uh I look around and everybody's
Ali Leonard: We're all holding it like
Walden Briarhelm: giving me the like this is this is not how we wanted this to look visually. It's Yes. Everybody's got the the three-finger fold thing and I'm just like I have the
Ali Leonard: normal.
Walden Briarhelm: feeling that I didn't do that correctly. And uh kind of like whatever I didn't get goes on the pizza and I grab it correctly this
Ellis Taylor: What's your pizza technique?
Walden Briarhelm: time. But it's uh
Ellis Taylor: Are you folding the pizza slice in half to give it

Walden Briarhelm: plain three cheese pizza. Perfect. is it it is like something ancestral. Something
Christopher Hooper: Pizza.
Ali Leonard: yeah. For the most of all
Walden Briarhelm: deep within his being is like truly engorged in this like cheese heaven. Like as a turtle, he never realized what pizza was before this. But the super rare, never historical combo of bread, cheese, and sauce somehow
Ellis Taylor: kind of looks like he's doing nothing at all.
Ali Leonard: time.
Walden Briarhelm: has eluded him. And this is now like it's like a light bulb has turned on for Ma. And you will see this
Ellis Taylor: Hey, what can I do for you? Just
Walden Briarhelm: behavior kind of stand out in the near future. You would almost say that pizza is
Ellis Taylor: wondering what you doing. Oh, I'm just
Christopher Hooper: And I I think
Walden Briarhelm: kind of this
Ellis Taylor: here at my favorite place. You know,
Christopher Hooper: I think you get
Ellis Taylor: just
Christopher Hooper: inspiration.
Ali Leonard: expect
Walden Briarhelm: thing. Oh yeah. I don't I give Silus a look. I don't
Tyram: There

Ellis Taylor: almost We almost spent over an hour on
Tyram: his pizza, too. And he's going to look at April. So, like, oh, hey, did you know that like people think
Christopher Hooper: Um
Tyram: you're a missing person and everything?
Ali Leonard: pizza. Let's

Justin Hale: Okay. Okay. So, she
Christopher Hooper: harness on them.
Tyram: Why would Pepsi do that? He's perfectly tame
Justin Hale: wasn't
Tyram: and we've already established
Walden Briarhelm: Yeah, that seems very
Justin Hale: Can I distract Pepsi with the food while I'm putting the harness on her to mitigate some of that
Walden Briarhelm: strange.
Justin Hale: damage? All right. Bye.
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Um that was with that in
Justin Hale: Um, can I can I
Christopher Hooper: mind.
Justin Hale: like do animal handling to try and coax Pepsi to come back with

Luke Neverisky: revenue. I have one in my
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, there you
Tyram: Maybe we'll
Luke Neverisky: background.
Tyram: find even better pizza like pizza perfect or something like
Walden Briarhelm: our
Tyram: that.
Walden Briarhelm: The mythical 20 out of 20
Tyram: Well, at risk of losing the sponsorship, Pizza Perfect is is solid, but not not even close to the best
Christopher Hooper: go.
Tyram: pizza in the area, I will say.
Walden Briarhelm: pizza. Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: It's not
Justin Hale: That's false advertising.
Tyram: I like it, but it's like,
Luke Neverisky: perfect.
Tyram: well, that was the only one I can think of that's like truly local. There's also place places like Mellow Mushroom or like uh Mel
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Tyram: Mushroom's really good, but it's uh it's part of a larger chain, so it's not truly
Walden Briarhelm: What what's what's the name of what you would say is your
Luke Neverisky: Like Yeah.
Tyram: local. Mushroom's my
Walden Briarhelm: favorite pizza in the area? Just the name.
Tyram: favorite, but they closed the one that's
Walden Briarhelm: Okay, sweet. I like it. I'm just gonna write that down.
Tyram: like accessible. Like they put it on Broadway, which is it might
Luke Neverisky: Right.
Tyram: as well be in China, you know? So now legitimately
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: the easiest one for me to get to is in
Justin Hale: I don't miss how hard it
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Justin Hale: was to get around Nashville. I don't miss that for a second, dude. I take
Christopher Hooper: Most of Nashville is easy. It's just Broadway and like crossing from where I live to East Nashville is
Tyram: Franklin.
Justin Hale: my If you live in Nashville, it's probably
Christopher Hooper: like really
Justin Hale: fine. If you live on the outskirts, it's
Christopher Hooper: annoying. Yeah. Yeah, that's
Tyram: And I drive from Hendersonville to Brentwood for work every day. So it is
Justin Hale: murder.
Christopher Hooper: true. Zach, you know how
Tyram: a it's a
Ellis Taylor: Yeah, that's
Justin Hale: That
Christopher Hooper: that how s***** that
Walden Briarhelm: I I don't but I'm just trying to
Justin Hale: sucks. Hendersonville to
Christopher Hooper: is.
Tyram: b****. I
Walden Briarhelm: imagine a city drive that's at least 30 minutes long and
Justin Hale: Brentwood. Is
Tyram: would kill if it was 30 minutes long. Are you killing? Are you kidding me?
Walden Briarhelm: like
Ellis Taylor: horrible. It should be
Christopher Hooper: No, it's basically
Tyram: If there's no traffic, it is like
Ellis Taylor: 30 minutes long. It's probably like what, an hour and a
Justin Hale: if three-hour round trip. Three.
Tyram: 35 minutes, but like if there is traffic, it's like at least an hour.
Ellis Taylor: half? Yeah.
Justin Hale: It used to be a three-hour round trip for me to go from Hendersonville to
Ellis Taylor: No,
Justin Hale: Printwood.
Tyram: Yeah, I've never had it that bad, but
Walden Briarhelm: Okay, now I understand more. This
Christopher Hooper: from
Tyram: um Nashville.
Walden Briarhelm: is Now you're talking like that's like Denver level traffic on what would be
Tyram: Okay, so I heard a thing like uh on the radio recently were talking about like Nashville apparently ranked like 12th in like traffic and um how bad the traffic is in the United States. I'm genuinely shocked that it's not higher. But I think
Walden Briarhelm: I7.
Ellis Taylor: no, closing in on
Tyram: they were also counting places like LA and New York that you know, well, yeah, but like places like that at least have a good reason to have
Ellis Taylor: Atlanta and DC Traffic DC traffic starts at like 3:00 in the
Justin Hale: Hello. Okay.
Tyram: terrible traffic. They have like 10 times the population we do, you
Walden Briarhelm: Florida. Just imagine Florida man in multiple cars. Florida is terrifying. Traffic

Justin Hale: Did I able to coax Pepsi to come down here since there's
Tyram: garbage.
Ellis Taylor: window
Justin Hale: fighting and
Christopher Hooper: Yes.
Ellis Taylor: initiative. Why is it in that 20
Christopher Hooper: Um, give me uh give me a
Ellis Taylor: now?
Justin Hale: carnage?
Christopher Hooper: persuasion
Tyram: Okay. Are me or
Justin Hale: Okay.
Christopher Hooper: check. Um,
Tyram: Helisana around to help persuade at this
Christopher Hooper: I think uh yeah, this is before you leave
Justin Hale: I'm going to ask for help
Christopher Hooper: potentially if Brew if Brew asked for your
Ellis Taylor: We crystals. Let's
Justin Hale: on that
Christopher Hooper: help. Okay.
Tyram: point? Okay. Um, I'll go up I'll go with Brew to to Pepsi. They're like, "No, you know, Brew, it's it's
Justin Hale: one.
Tyram: probably too much to ask of this young dragon because after all, we're going to a place of of battle, a place
Ellis Taylor: go.
Tyram: where a true dragon, a hardcore warrior would be able to prove themselves." I don't think that's Pepsi. No, Pepsi seem to doesn't seem to have what it takes to go to the
Justin Hale: And it it sounds
Tyram: hardcore kick-ass places that we're going
Justin Hale: like this may be a little too much for Pepsi. She might want to She might want to stay back for this
Tyram: to. I'm afraid so,
Walden Briarhelm: Oh, I think I understand. Yeah, we really wouldn't want Pepsi to come in and
Christopher Hooper: All
Walden Briarhelm: take care of everything.
Christopher Hooper: right. Yeah. Enroll your persuasion
Tyram: Brew.
Christopher Hooper: check. Yeah. And I guess with that uh this is Brew. Brew is rolling. Uh you can
Justin Hale: one. Okay. Okay.
Christopher Hooper: give him advantage here if
Tyram: Uh oh. Okay. I I give you advantage
Justin Hale: Okay. Okay. The advantage is super helpful there. Um, we're going to use another flash of genius though to really drive it home. So, 18 + 5 would be
Christopher Hooper: you all right.
Tyram: for
Christopher Hooper: Yeah, you convince him. He says uh he just lazily sits in the freezer and lets you uh leave him there.
Walden Briarhelm: You're chilling the Pepsi is what we're
Ellis Taylor: He's got lots of frozen lettuce to eat. He's going to be
Justin Hale: 23. I think that I think the point
Ali Leonard: Leave the door
Walden Briarhelm: hearing.
Ellis Taylor: happy.
Justin Hale: was that we were trying to do reverse
Tyram: That was absolutely what we're trying to
Christopher Hooper: Oh, well, he you persuaded him with the the what
Tyram: do.
Ali Leonard: open.
Walden Briarhelm: Yeah, I
Christopher Hooper: you said and he's like, "Yeah, probably got it.
Walden Briarhelm: caught
Justin Hale: psychology.
Christopher Hooper: Probably don't need to do this."
Tyram: Well, you know what? In the long term, this might be better because this is go for acknowledging that we've established a reasonable rapport with
Justin Hale: All right, we'll we'll
Christopher Hooper: Um
Walden Briarhelm: literally
Justin Hale: be
Tyram: Pepsi. Pepsi's willing to listen to us. That's
Ellis Taylor: Yes, I am getting
Justin Hale: what? All right, we'll be back.
Christopher Hooper: um yeah, it's
Tyram: canon.
Walden Briarhelm: All
Ellis Taylor: off.
Justin Hale: Pipsy, you eat. You can eat all the things in this
Christopher Hooper: true.
Justin Hale: fridge.

Tyram: Pepsi.
Christopher Hooper: right, I have El Smith
Walden Briarhelm: right.
Christopher Hooper: with 11. I have Silus with a seven. I have retired detective Olivia Cooper
Tyram: Yeah.
Justin Hale: Oh,
Christopher Hooper: with a 19. Mmo with an 18.
Justin Hale: initiative.
Christopher Hooper: and Helison with the 19 and Brew with the 23. Okay. Uh before I press this button, do you want to
Justin Hale: 23. Anybody want to go
Christopher Hooper: switch with
Justin Hale: first? No. All right, I'll go first
Walden Briarhelm: Do we have a like we're in combat, but
Justin Hale: then.
Christopher Hooper: anyone?
Walden Briarhelm: have we had a moment to like dis like did we just turn the corner and now we're in like an ambush or what is what has happened
Ellis Taylor: No. Yeah, I was about
Christopher Hooper: um
Tyram: Okay.
Walden Briarhelm: exactly?
Ellis Taylor: to ask why are we fighting already?
Christopher Hooper: we are in initiative order, but you can ask that before we before we start combat. Um
Walden Briarhelm: Do we have any
Christopher Hooper: so I'm gonna I'm gonna lay this scene
Walden Briarhelm: ideas? We we know
Christopher Hooper: real quick, Zach. Um, so y'all are y'all are going through the
Walden Briarhelm: that
Christopher Hooper: sewers and it opens up to this nightclub and you see uh at the top you see uh that there's this big ass baby playing
Walden Briarhelm: do
Christopher Hooper: um like metal EDM um up on this platform and there's all these these raver groups. Um, so each one of those dots is probably like 10. Uh, each one of the purple like raver mod mobs is probably 10 to 12 people. 12. Each one is 12. Those that you're pinging, those are the arcane tablets that are that Kang is playing music off of. Um, and those are already uh affecting you psychologically.
Ellis Taylor: Ow. Um, what are they doing? Because if everyone is within my aura of
Tyram: Is
Ellis Taylor: devotion, they're immune to being, I guess, charmed. It's probably not charmed,
Tyram: it termed? It sounds like it might
Ellis Taylor: but they might be. If they're within 10 feet of me, you're all
Christopher Hooper: Um, I mean, let me know when you're ready for me to press to
Ellis Taylor: you're immune to
Christopher Hooper: start combat and I'll tell you what
Walden Briarhelm: Oh, Don't do it yet. Don't do it
Ellis Taylor: it.
Walden Briarhelm: yet. Alisana, are you going to Leroy James

Walden Briarhelm: Okay, we know she's got some cheese. And
Luke Neverisky: effect.
Christopher Hooper: Um, did you all
Walden Briarhelm: she might she might just go full like super
Christopher Hooper: have any other questions about the setting before I before I press
Walden Briarhelm: saiyan. Just wanted one
Christopher Hooper: the
Tyram: Um, is everything um around us like u
Walden Briarhelm: more. This This
Christopher Hooper: button?

Christopher Hooper: Yes, those are 12
Walden Briarhelm: ravers. 12 ravers. Got
Christopher Hooper: each.
Walden Briarhelm: it. Uh, do we want to try to have anybody come to us or do we want to kick them on? Seems like you always want to attack if you have the potential for the
Christopher Hooper: Yep. Um so
Tyram: letting them come to us sounds like a terrible
Walden Briarhelm: upper
Christopher Hooper: then
Walden Briarhelm: hand. All right, that sounds like we want to go with
Christopher Hooper: So, um, you can
Tyram: idea. Or sneak around.
Walden Briarhelm: run

Christopher Hooper: Um,
Tyram: You can do slashing.

Christopher Hooper: he looks like a big baby in a leather vest, but every time you swing, it seems like he predicts
Walden Briarhelm: damage? This is
Christopher Hooper: where you're going to go and seems to move out of the way.
Walden Briarhelm: Ah, he's got good rhythm. All right, I'm gonna go with claws. Uh, I can use claws because I'm a turtle. And we deal
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Walden Briarhelm: limited damage, seven damage against Kang. And that will uh I think I want to stay here to keep

Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: that.
Ellis Taylor: also um actually or or Taylor if you want to save that I can Use protect. Use my reaction to impose disadvantage on that attack

Christopher Hooper: Is that what you're going
Ellis Taylor: roll. Yeah. Yeah. Whichever you
Christopher Hooper: to do?

Christopher Hooper: cool.
Ali Leonard: I put my hands on her face and I heal
Walden Briarhelm: No.
Christopher Hooper: Okay, that's
Ali Leonard: her. So, let's start with that and cure woundsing but at a second
Luke Neverisky: on. Nice.
Ali Leonard: level. Good. Oh,
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Okay. What's what Silus says about you, you are
Christopher Hooper: cool.
Tyram: Whoa.
Ali Leonard: good. Wait, what is Wait, what does he say about me?
Luke Neverisky: right. We'll
Tyram: What?
Ali Leonard: And that's his whole time
Tyram: Nothing. Why are you making drama? I don't say s*** about Ellsworth. Ellsworth is easily
Ali Leonard: now. So, you get 31
Tyram: top half in Silus's esteem from the party members here.
Ali Leonard: back. Yes, that's
Luke Neverisky: talk
Christopher Hooper: Nice.
Ali Leonard: She wants to be at least average. You know what I mean? Okay.
Tyram: Yeah. I mean, legitimately the Coopers are probably
Ali Leonard: Okay. So, you get 31 back
Tyram: one and two, but I'm not sure in what order. Very low opinion of brew, but
Ali Leonard: healthwise and then then I did a
Ellis Taylor: Hey, come on.
Justin Hale: Bruise number one in
Ali Leonard: movement and then I'd like to bonus action tell
Ellis Taylor: There's number
Tyram: He cares greatly for Brew, but has very little respect
Ali Leonard: box to get off my
Justin Hale: here. Bruise number one in
Christopher Hooper: Fox is box. off your
Tyram: for
Ali Leonard: back. Yeah, I should have gotten him activated
Justin Hale: here.
Christopher Hooper: back.
Ali Leonard: before now, but I didn't. So, I'm owning that
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Ali Leonard: and that's a me mistake. So, he is now
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: Brew.
Ali Leonard: active. And next to me, he's like
Ellis Taylor: one.
Ali Leonard: been asleep for like three weeks and he's like, "What the
Christopher Hooper: Cool.
Tyram: God, I legit
Ali Leonard: f***?" So, now we have that. So, healed, moved, and box
Tyram: forgot Box Bbox
Ali Leonard: is
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Ali Leonard: active. I got too many things going on. You know what I mean?
Christopher Hooper: Um, do you do you need a token for
Ali Leonard: I got a gun and I got to do spells. Like, come on, man. Yes. Well, he'll be with
Justin Hale: It's okay.
Christopher Hooper: box?
Tyram: existed.
Ali Leonard: me. Well, maybe just in
Walden Briarhelm: Yes, more
Ellis Taylor: Yes.
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Ali Leonard: case. Just a little
Ellis Taylor: Yeah, we
Christopher Hooper: Um, okay. How about a How about a
Ali Leonard: robot. Doesn't have to be a robot. It could just be like a
Walden Briarhelm: tokens.
Christopher Hooper: quartz? All right.
Ali Leonard: dog. I love that. He would love
Christopher Hooper: There's your
Ali Leonard: that.
Christopher Hooper: corpse. All right. Yes, Silus, you're
Ali Leonard: Thank you little
Ellis Taylor: robot
Christopher Hooper: up.
Ali Leonard: buddy. Thank you little
Tyram: I can barely see the corpse. I will say they kind of blend in with the
Luke Neverisky: Mhm.
Christopher Hooper: That's why we always forget about
Tyram: background.
Ali Leonard: guy. I love it. It's great and it's very stealth and that's what we're going
Christopher Hooper: box. It just blends into the
Ali Leonard: to do. It's going for dead. He's always in
Christopher Hooper: background. All right, Silus, what are you going to do about
Tyram: Okay. Um I mean this gang person needs to f****** die. They
Ali Leonard: stealth.
Christopher Hooper: this?
Tyram: are like dishing out like 50 f****** damage a
Ali Leonard: Oh, and I'm standing in
Christopher Hooper: Oh,
Tyram: turn.
Ali Leonard: front of Teleson if that wasn't
Ellis Taylor: that or we need
Christopher Hooper: like um Okay. Like
Tyram: Um okay.
Ali Leonard: obvious. Yeah,
Ellis Taylor: to destroy his little
Christopher Hooper: there.
Tyram: So is going to try to like like kind of like move to the front. I'm assuming that like uh I was picturing like Silus in like the like the the biker chick position behind Olivia up to this point. So, I'm going to try to
Ali Leonard: like
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: like position myself up to the front of Olivia so that I can attack uh
Ellis Taylor: plates.
Christopher Hooper: Okay. Uh, you are you're in a tight spot.
Tyram: Kang. I'm a tiny little guy. I can like, you know, I got I don't need a lot
Christopher Hooper: So, I'm just saying um that
Tyram: of footholds here.
Christopher Hooper: would uh expose you like you'd be moving to the other side of Olivia thus like triggering opportunity attacks here.
Tyram: I can move through my allies. That is a specific thing that a
Christopher Hooper: It's not about that. It's about moving out of
Tyram: halfling can
Christopher Hooper: the uh out of
Tyram: do. I wouldn't be I'd just be moving like a
Christopher Hooper: the the rules of DND is you cannot occupy the same
Tyram: foot.
Christopher Hooper: space. Uh and so you are either in this space or you are in the one above
Tyram: Then I'll I'll just I'll throw knives at him then.
Christopher Hooper: her.
Tyram: Okay. I'm not blanking
Luke Neverisky: I think you would be flanking
Tyram: if I'm at a distance, which is why I was trying to move, but I still
Luke Neverisky: with but you are in an
Tyram: hit. I'm pretty sure a 23 hit, so I'm
Luke Neverisky: adjacent square if I'm looking at the map
Tyram: I'm good.
Luke Neverisky: correctly.
Tyram: Okay.
Christopher Hooper: Yep.
Tyram: Um,
Luke Neverisky: Thank you. That's
Tyram: 12
Luke Neverisky: lined
Tyram: 16. Okay, so my first attack does uh 24
Christopher Hooper: Uh, all
Tyram: damage.
Christopher Hooper: right.
Tyram: Psychic. Uh, no. I I rolled a
Christopher Hooper: That Okay,
Tyram: 23 and I did 24 damage.
Christopher Hooper: cool.
Tyram: Yeah. And then, um, with my bonus action, I'm going to just I guess I'm just going to try to do more damage. I'm going to try to throw another dagger at her
Christopher Hooper: Are you doing sneak
Tyram: here. Uh, sneak attack was applied to
Christopher Hooper: attack? Okay, cool. Cool. Okay, there.
Tyram: that first attack. Yes. Yep. I I can
Christopher Hooper: Gotcha. I thought that was a
Tyram: do nowhere near 24 damage without sneak attack.
Christopher Hooper: great great
Tyram: The most I could possibly do without sneak
Christopher Hooper: damage. Okay, that makes sense.
Tyram: attack is 10. Um, which is less on this next attack, even if it does hit. Oh, but I
Luke Neverisky: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: Nice. There you
Tyram: do have advantage now since I hit her with my Vex
Christopher Hooper: go.
Tyram: weapon. Uh, does
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Yes.
Tyram: a 19 hit? Okay. All right. Um, seven
Christopher Hooper: Yep. Seven damage. All right. Chipping away. Chipping
Tyram: damage. Yeah, I can't do sneak attack more than once a
Christopher Hooper: away.
Tyram: turn.
Ellis Taylor: Oh, I forgot to keep we forgot to
Tyram: So, Oh,
Ellis Taylor: see if um what's his name was toppled. Oh well, I forgot. It's
Christopher Hooper: Um, which is technically better for
Ellis Taylor: okay. next
Christopher Hooper: Silus if he's doing range attacks.
Tyram: yeah.
Ellis Taylor: time. Yes. Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: So, um, so yeah, that's fine. Uh, cool. Uh, Silus, that is Do you want to
Tyram: I can't without getting attacked. So, I might as well
Christopher Hooper: move? It's not a good idea. No. All right, cool. Uh,
Tyram: stay here. So, yeah.
Christopher Hooper: Brew, you're up.
Tyram: Also, I want to stay in the uh the aura anyway.
Ellis Taylor: Yeah.
Justin Hale: All right, I'm going to grab
Tyram: So,
Justin Hale: Kevin and we're going to move up
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. Hi, I'm
Justin Hale: to here. So,
Christopher Hooper: Kevin.
Justin Hale: boom. And I'm going to use Wait, I don't have to use it, do I? because I can move straight ahead. That's going to be I think everything I want to do actually hits from there. So that's perfect. Um I'm going to use
Tyram: f***.
Justin Hale: hex on Kang. And then
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Justin Hale: I'm going to uh So that does stuff for me, but it also does disadvantage. I'm going to do disadvantage on uh dexterity abilities and then
Christopher Hooper: Oh, cool.
Justin Hale: does that take it takes my bonus action. Um so because I'm using hex from fay touch can I still
Walden Briarhelm: No.
Justin Hale: cast this
Christopher Hooper: Okay. Since you're using hex from fake. Yes. I I believe we said that
Justin Hale: spell? Okay. Um, I'm going to
Christopher Hooper: was Yes.
Justin Hale: cast. What was I going to
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Justin Hale: cast? This one. Yeah. Scorching
Christopher Hooper: Scorching
Justin Hale: ray. I make an
Christopher Hooper: ray
Justin Hale: attack. Yes, I do hits. Okay. Um. Okay. So, does this 14 hit?
Christopher Hooper: ill. What are you attacking? Uh, no.
Justin Hale: Okay. Okay. How about a 26?
Christopher Hooper: 26
Justin Hale: Okay. And how about a
Christopher Hooper: heads and 18
Justin Hale: 18? Okay. So, Oh, wait. I don't make those separately.
Christopher Hooper: hits.
Justin Hale: That's just one.
Christopher Hooper: Oh, so you missed on the first
Luke Neverisky: I think they are in
Justin Hale: Yeah.
Christopher Hooper: one.
Tyram: scorching ray. Yeah, those are separate
Luke Neverisky: separate attacks, aren't they? You can you can hit mismiss or
Justin Hale: Each each
Tyram: attacks. Um, each ray is its own attack role.
Justin Hale: array is 2d6. Oh, perfect. Okay,
Tyram: Yeah.
Justin Hale: awesome. Um,
Luke Neverisky: something.
Justin Hale: uh, how does it work with this thing? I was not prepared for
Tyram: Yes.
[03:30:00]
Justin Hale: that. My little plus thing. Where is it? Firearm one of your spells damage rolls. Okay, so it's 1 d8 for that. Okay, so that's going to be 2d6 plus a d8 for the first one. So that's going to be 10 fire damage and then another 10. So 20 fire damage plus what does hex do? Hex does an extra 1d6 of necrotic and then six necrotic
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Ellis Taylor: Burn that
Justin Hale: damage. So 20 fire six necrotic and
Christopher Hooper: Nice. All right.
Ellis Taylor: baby.
Justin Hale: then uh that that cube
Christopher Hooper: Nice. Very good.
Justin Hale: is gone now but I can't there we
Christopher Hooper: All right.
Justin Hale: go.
Christopher Hooper: Um, okay. Let's see. Ma, Silus, and
Justin Hale: Oh,

Luke Neverisky: lesson. Um,
Ellis Taylor: poopy.
Tyram: problems.
Ali Leonard: the rocks.
Luke Neverisky: maybe. Um, all right. So, uh, I'm going to cast mirror image. So, now you got, I think, four
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Luke Neverisky: in total. Helisanas.
Justin Hale: That's too many
Tyram: Never enough
Ali Leonard: You have got to use that in the show
Walden Briarhelm: Well, there's

Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Tyram: Helisana. Well, in combat
Ali Leonard: though for
Luke Neverisky: Yeah,
Ellis Taylor: much
Tyram: and on in the concert, sure, but like in like just like normal hanging out with
Luke Neverisky: obviously
Justin Hale: helis.
Christopher Hooper: This is
Tyram: Helisana, that's a lot of Helisana. Yeah.
Ali Leonard: sure. It's a lot of
Luke Neverisky: that's all
Christopher Hooper: the only time it's
Ali Leonard: She's going to mirror during the intervention and we're not going to know which one we're talking
Ellis Taylor: beauty.
Luke Neverisky: that's not supposed to know that. Um All right. And then
Christopher Hooper: allowed.
Luke Neverisky: um I will um am I still
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Ali Leonard: to.
Luke Neverisky: feeling pretty good from the uh consumable? I feel like Okay. Um in that case, this thing's going to get a blast. Um I will try to hit once and I miss on the first bolt and I hit on the
Christopher Hooper: Yeah.
Luke Neverisky: second bolt with a 19. I'll do
Christopher Hooper: Mhm.
Luke Neverisky: damage here. Um, that is a mighty six damage
Christopher Hooper: 96.

Ellis Taylor: Yay. B. What's your B juice? A six or an
Christopher Hooper: juice.
Luke Neverisky: juice. Uh, six.
Ellis Taylor: eight?
Justin Hale: juice. What do I add that to again? Damage
Ellis Taylor: Cool.
Justin Hale: rolls.
Tyram: You can add it to attack rolls or saving throws,
Luke Neverisky: Um, right.
Tyram: I think, or skill shot.
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. A D20 test basically.
Justin Hale: Okay. Okay. I need to remember
Tyram: Yeah, there's a there's a specific kind of bar that would let you do damage rolls, but that's not what Hellison
Justin Hale: that. That was the nature board thing that I was with the
Luke Neverisky: Yeah. Um, all right. And uh I'll keep my
Justin Hale: moes.
Christopher Hooper: All
Luke Neverisky: distance here. So that'll be my
Christopher Hooper: right.
Tyram: is.
Christopher Hooper: Um,
Ellis Taylor: Olivia. All right, Olivia's going to roll
Christopher Hooper: sorry, one second. Um, I need Ellswith, Buu, and Helisana to give me a constitution saving throw.
Ellis Taylor: that.
Christopher Hooper: Um, you
Ali Leonard: Rude. That's like not my
Walden Briarhelm: Olivia, rude.
Luke Neverisky: turn. Uh I feel
Christopher Hooper: see a cloud above you of psionic energy crackling and it rains down. Uh, the psionic uh, storm uh, creates these like black
Ali Leonard: vibe.
Christopher Hooper: venomous raindrops that fall on you. You need to beat a DC15 constitution saving
Justin Hale: Um, is this is this Kang doing
Christopher Hooper: throw. This is Kang doing
Justin Hale: that? Is Kang making
Christopher Hooper: that.
Justin Hale: eye eye contact with us as this is happening?
Ali Leonard: 19.
Justin Hale: Okay, I rolled a nat 20 and I also have plus six to constitution
Ali Leonard: Red
Justin Hale: saving throws. Can I like stick my tongue out and like drink this stuff
Ellis Taylor: Yay!
Justin Hale: and then like belch and look directly at Kang when it happens and intimidate
Christopher Hooper: Yes. Yeah, for
Tyram: I mean, that's got to be at least like 1d6 psychic damage, right?
Luke Neverisky: Yeah,
Christopher Hooper: sure. I'll keep it in mind. Um, all right. Did
Luke Neverisky: right.
Ellis Taylor: Let him roll a D4. Come
Christopher Hooper: it Did all uh did all three of you make that? All
Luke Neverisky: Uh, no. I
Justin Hale: him?
Christopher Hooper: right, Helisana, you are
Walden Briarhelm: No. Hell sana.
Ellis Taylor: on. Giggle this girl an
Christopher Hooper: poisoned.
Walden Briarhelm: No.
Luke Neverisky: failed. I poison myself on the regular
Ellis Taylor: umbrella.
Luke Neverisky: anyway. It's
Justin Hale: It's the
Christopher Hooper: Poisoned.
Tyram: Alisana doesn't even notice she
Walden Briarhelm: Tell those kind of perks
Luke Neverisky: fine.
Christopher Hooper: Um, that means you have disadvantage
Tyram: was already high.
Christopher Hooper: on attack roles and ability
Walden Briarhelm: up. Oh
Christopher Hooper: checks. All right. Retired detective Olivia
Walden Briarhelm: no.
Luke Neverisky: disappears. That's
Justin Hale: same.
Ellis Taylor: All right, just going to
Christopher Hooper: Cooper.
Ellis Taylor: attack. Okay, let's see.
Luke Neverisky: good.
Ellis Taylor: So, the first one would be um
Christopher Hooper: Okay, that hits.
Ellis Taylor: a 20 to hit. And then let's just check and see if this one also crits. Nope. So, it'll be a 26 to hit. I'll roll. And I'm going to
Christopher Hooper: Okay.
Ellis Taylor: use another divine smite on
Christopher Hooper: So, um firstly,
Ellis Taylor: there.
Christopher Hooper: uh when you hit for the first time, she spits in your face. Uh I need you to make a dexterity saving there.
Walden Briarhelm: Oh, I
Ellis Taylor: Okay, I'm going to write these damages down 11
Walden Briarhelm: do not
Ellis Taylor: before I forget. Oh, my deck is not
Christopher Hooper: that
Ellis Taylor: good.
Christopher Hooper: fails. You get
Ellis Taylor: 13.
Christopher Hooper: uh seven acid damage and are blinded
Walden Briarhelm: like
Christopher Hooper: until your next turn. Uh blinded means that um uh attack rules against you have advantage and your attack has
Ellis Taylor: Okay. So, I'm just neutral now then cuz I had advantage on
Christopher Hooper: disadvantage. Yes, that's
Ellis Taylor: Bob. Okay. Okay, so that was after my first attack. It was an 18 and I think the second roll is like a
Christopher Hooper: right. Okay.
Ellis Taylor: 12. So with the plus eight, that still would have been a 20 to
Christopher Hooper: Okay,
Ellis Taylor: hit. So we'll keep both those damage and I'll roll with the 2d8. Um, that's six 26 damage on
Christopher Hooper: cool. Uh, nice. Very
Ellis Taylor: him.
Christopher Hooper: good. All right.
Ellis Taylor: And that's all my
Christopher Hooper: Um, it is getting late and uh I think we're about halfway through this battle.
Walden Briarhelm: Here we
Christopher Hooper: So, um I'm kind of thinking maybe this would
Ellis Taylor: stuff.
Christopher Hooper: be uh a good stopping point and I have the the progress saved here for me. Uh what do y'all
Walden Briarhelm: are.
Justin Hale: Let's call

Justin Hale: Nice. Solo.

Walden Briarhelm: this and I came out of it ready to start swinging and it was like
Christopher Hooper: Yeah. I
Walden Briarhelm: drunken almost

Christopher Hooper: Jesus, I've given up
Walden Briarhelm: I
Ellis Taylor: actually like attacked me though. I say like as I say that a
Christopher Hooper: cuz you're like I can never hit you. It's like a waste of
Justin Hale: Ellis has PTSD.
Christopher Hooper: time. Not when I can like one hit kill Helisana
Tyram: Well, if not for well not for Olivia like using
Ellis Taylor: lot. Yeah, it's true. That's fair.
Tyram: her shield and uh me having the half damage thing, Silus would be
Christopher Hooper: like

Tyram: single f****** one of you. I did
Justin Hale: s***.
Tyram: do that, but I didn't kill
Ali Leonard: She went to hell. But
